Agricultural Talents

“Is that true?”

Wang Xilong was overjoyed; if it was really like that, then he wouldn't have to go out to work.

He thought for a moment.

That young man had just taken a few photos in the orchard.

“Of course, it’s true. If Brother Wang is worried, you might as well stay at home for two more days. My friend should be here in about two days. Then he will discuss the orchard contracting and work matters with you.”

Chen Mo nodded seriously.

“Okay, then I’ll wait a few more days. I’ll also tell the other orchard owners about the situation and ask them to wait a few more days.”

Wang Xilong nodded.

If this matter could be implemented, he believed that none of those orchard owners would be willing to go out to work.

“Then I’ll trouble Brother Wang. Let’s exchange contact information. When my friend arrives, I’ll contact you, and then you can organize the orchard owners who suffered from the disaster.”

Chen Mo smiled slightly; his purpose for coming out today had already been achieved.

Next, he just needed to find a ‘friend’ to come and handle things here on his behalf.

Of course, there was also the registration of the agricultural company.

“No trouble.”

Wang Xilong quickly waved his hand.

Just like that, the two chatted briefly in the orchard before going down the mountain and parting ways.

Old residential area,

Chen Mo returned home, ate the dinner his mother had left for him, and went back to his room.

He took out a notebook and started writing.

His biggest idea for choosing agriculture was that it had a long cycle.

For example, planting a new fruit tree, from seedling to bearing fruit, would take at least three years, and the yield wouldn't be much. Even if sold, it wouldn't bring in much money.

So, at least for these three years, all his investments would be expenses, with no profit points.

As for what it would be like after three years, he didn't know.

But even if agriculture developed well and became profitable after three years, three years would still be enough for him to successfully settle an account, right?

And with him around, how could agriculture easily make a profit?

Chen Mo smiled slightly and began to write down his plan in his notebook.

The first was the water problem. Those villagers cared about the cost of digging wells, but he didn't. He wanted to dig more than one well.

Then there was the issue of transporting fruit, which he had just learned about in the orchard. How could his employees be so exhausted in his industry?

Now is the age of technology. When the time comes, he can install something similar to a cable car. As long as the picked fruits are boxed and placed on the cable car, the cable car will transport them down.

And whether it was digging wells or building cable cars, both would consume a large amount of system funds.

This perfectly fit his spending policy.

In addition to the above,

limiting the development of orchards was also very necessary.

Now, those fruit trees on the mountain were definitely not needed, after all, who knew what the next year would bring? What if the harvest was good? Wouldn't he make money?

So all those mature fruit trees had to be pulled down and new ones planted.

As for the choice of fruit trees, he had to choose carefully. Popular fruit trees were definitely out.

Popular

meant good sales, which was definitely not allowed. If he was going to choose, he would choose niche fruit trees, so that even if the trees bore fruit after three years, they would be difficult to sell.

And then there was the issue of expansion.

Since it was about losing money on a large scale, the orchard was just the beginning. He definitely had to expand into other agricultural industries.

However, he also had to choose these agricultural industries. Those with short cycles were definitely not wanted. He had to choose those with long cycles, similar to fruit trees.

But this expansion wasn't that urgent. After getting the orchard side sorted out, he would consider expanding the agricultural industry at an appropriate time.

Chen Mo made a note at the back, which could serve as a future plan.

For example: when there was an urgent need to spend money.

Looking at the content recorded in his notebook, Chen Mo began to think about his family.

He could completely recruit both his parents into this agricultural company and then pay them high salaries.

As the president of the group, he still had this privilege.

However, the only difficulty was whether his parents would agree.

Chen Mo couldn't help but murmur in his heart.

After all, the agricultural company had just been established, so it seemed a bit difficult to ask his parents to give up their original public service positions.

Forget it.

This wasn't urgent. If he couldn't persuade them now, he would eventually succeed one day.

After confirming his thoughts, Chen Mo immediately sent a message to Assistant Shen, asking her to find a suitable person in the company to be responsible for the agricultural industry in Beiming County.

………….

Orphanage,

Shen Rou and Zhang Lan were playing with the children in the courtyard when her phone suddenly vibrated.

Shen Rou took out her phone and glanced at it, then walked out of the group of children.

“You guys play, Big Sister has something to deal with.”

She said to the children with a low smile, then looked up at Zhang Lan.

“It’s a message from President Chen. I’ll go deal with it.”

With that,

she walked to the side, coming to a relatively quiet corner, and began to read the message from President Chen.

From a distance, the sounds of Zhang Lan playing with the children could be heard.

After a while,

Shen Rou finished reading all the messages and couldn't help but be surprised. She hadn't expected President Chen to want to develop agriculture after returning home for the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Agricultural talent,

Shen Rou recalled the company's personnel but didn't find a suitable candidate.

After thinking for a moment,

she found the group chat for the group managers and posted President Chen's request there.

Aside from notifications about group activities, this group basically sent out work-related questions, hoping that everyone could provide some ideas or help.

Not long after,

people had already started replying to the messages.

Song Xia: All my staff here are coffee shop employees, and none are related to agriculture.

Jiang Cheng: I’ll ask in the Clothing Factory group chat to see if there’s a suitable candidate.

Luo Xiao: We’re currently filming. Everyone at Lanpian Film and Television deals with actors. There’s no one related to agriculture!

………

Wei Yan: You can ask Li Shen. I remember there’s an agricultural live streaming section in Wuliao Short Video, with many Agricultural University students and some professors, all very professional. @Li Shen

Luo Xiao: @Li Shen

Wang Bin: @Li Shen

……..

About half an hour later.

Li Shen: What happened? I’m in the mountains, and the signal isn’t good right now.

Wei Yan: Scroll up and check Assistant Shen’s message.

Li Shen: Alright.

Not long after.

Li Shen: Regarding agriculture, huh? I know Professor Yuan from Jiang Cheng Agricultural University. I’ll go ask him to see if he has any recommended candidates.

Shen Rou: Thank you, President Li.

Li Shen: No trouble at all. President Chen’s matters are everyone’s matters. Only by helping each other can we make Tomorrow Group bigger and stronger. I won’t say more for now; I still have to visit two impoverished elderly people today.
